Ktknits yours came today well worth the wait no problem very cute.

take care

Oh FYI your box had a 5 inch whole in it. I think everything was ok as it looked like you sent 9 of each item so I skipped you was that right. Also all your blocks are here they are lovely too. You made one extra ( probably from the first count when we had one more person. What I am doing with those random extra blocks ( we have a few is I am going to offer them in the stitching room to the first person who will make a block to swap with it. Then I will mail the new block to you your other blocks will be in this easter swap coming back to you so will suzyhomemakers.

I'm just thankful that it got there!! And, I guess that I didn't send anything breakable since it had the big hole in it--I wonder if they had to check it out somewhere along the way because of the noise?? Did it look like they had tried to repair the hole? Anyway, yes, I sent 9 of each item--no sense sending you one for me just to have you send it back to me!! Thanks for your patience!

nothing was broken and no they had not repaired it. But nothing inside looked damaged The tissue wrapped around everything kept every thing inside.

I just got my package in the mail today and ahd so much fun going through it all! I'd love to know who made what as not everything was labeled including my own. I also wanted to tell everyone that the striped bag with the stitch markers on it are also bath salts. They are made with an essential oil blend called "joy". (that's my spring connection) anyway it is ade with oils of jasmine, rose, ylang ylang to name a few. I hop you all enoy it. Again, I love it all! Thanks to each of you and especially to sunshine for organizing this. Happy Spring!

Hi Sunshine,
I just wanted to let you know that I think you may have Leslie and I confused. I made the bath salts and stitch markers, not the doilies. I'd love to take credit for them but I can't! Thanks again.

What beautiful items everyone made. I'm not sure if all the items you posted on your blog were in Leslie's package because it seems there is one on your blog that we did not see. I'll have her check when she gets home from work. I am glad Leslie did this one as I am not as creative as all that. She is very happy with all the lovely spring things!

that could easily be as the case there are two types of bug but you only get one ( either a lady bug or a caterpillar) and there was a pin that was a hostess gift to me and no one else got that either. What item do you think was not there. I assume you are checking in that you got the package as that only makes since as how otherwise would you know that something is not right so thank you for letting me know you got the package.
take care

I got my package in the mail today, and it's absolutely wonderful!! Such talent--the egg and the handblown glass are just great--I love them!! And the whole package smells delightful! I just have one question--did we each get 2 stitch markers? Mine were loose, and I want to be sure there aren't more before I throw away the "filler paper & bags". A very big Thank You to everyone who made the things--they're all great!

Oh, happy day yesterday. I got my box in the mail!! Yeah!!

Thank you, ladies, for all the beautiful gifts. I can't believe what a lovely assortment there is. I used some of the bath salts from shmeg last night. They smell wonderful. My daughter enjoyed them as well. We used the crocheted cloths in the bath as well. Jake and I each picked our own out.

My kids went through the box with me. It was better than Christmas!!! The glass blown ornament is just so gorgeous. I need to buy a brass hanger to hang it and place it on the hutch. Sunshine, Maddie is wearing the hairclip today. She is thrilled to have it as she has long hair and I do not. She was so excited to have it from the box of goodies.

We hung up our catepillar and small decorative pillow above the sliding glass doors. They look so spring and nice. The easter egg is on the counter by the computer so I can enjoy it all day long and while I sit here once a day. We happen to love those flower fairies. Jake wore the felt egg pin last night.

I placed the doily on the edge of the hutch and put my favorite toy camper on it. The white catches the light, and I can really enjoy the ornament and think about our next camping trip. it is so pretty and delicate. I lvoe the yellow flowers as an accent.

I put the bookmark to use right away to hold the place i nthe book I started with Jake last night.

Ladies, I will email you individually as I would like to send you each a note.

Sunshine, please thank your daughter and also you for the note and pin and guardian angels. My kids each took an angel to watch over themselves. I love that they can fit it in their pockets. When they are a little nervous, they just have to reach in, touch it and feel reassured they are being helped all the time. Jake has a small homeschool presentation today, and he has his amgel tucked into his pocket. I have my Easter pin on to go to town today. Thank you so much. That was very sweet of both of you. You really made it special for us.

Also, I received all the signature blocks in the box. Thank you. I am so excited to put them into a quilt. Stay tuned for another quilt block swap after Easter. I want to host one in red, white and blue, 8 1/2" size. Then, I can use them with these signature blocks to make a farmgirl quilt.

I got my sig swap blocks in the box too, and I ended up cutting them all down to the 6 1/2 inch size to match the other MJF quilt block swap that we're doing. They all were fine size-wise to cut down except for mine, so, since I know who I am, I just cut my name off the bottom. You could do the same then you'd be ready to put them into a quilt now when you get the other squares back (at least I think you're in the other swap).

I got my package yesterday and I was so very happy when I unwrapped everything inside! What a crafty bunch we are! My grandson just loves the caterpillar. I have it hanging up where he can see it but where he can't touch it! I have put everything in it's place and my home looks so springy! Thank you, Sunshine , for not only hosting this swap but for my
"angels", my scarf, and those precious notes from your girls! Happy Spring, everyone! Susan
